Our History

Hi all,  hope everyone had a wonderful Easter Weekend!!!  It was a beautiful one here in Northern Maine.  I finished up a LO for a challenge at Soul Scrappers , here is my layout.....

I know the photo is hard to see in this picture, it is my Grandparents. The photo was taken around 1945, in Perham, Maine.  I have so many fond memories of spending time with them.

 

I made these banners and placed them in a few spots on my layout.

 

 

Just a little journal stamping on the back ground. You can also see some of the misting that was done on the back ground.

 

 

I cut these doily's using my cricut, then inked with tea dye ink.

 

 

I am playing around with my new spectrum noir markers and blender. I thought I would try them out on these cute mulberry paper flowers. I love the way these alcohol makers blend.

 

 

A close up of my finished flowers, love how they came out.

 

 

A faux stitch circle was added.

 

 

A close up of my little photo, a photo I will always cherish.

supplies:

The image was printed then colored and fussy cut.  I added  border punch papers and use punched flowers with homemade gems.

Perfect pearls (pink gumball) was added to the embossing....
